Blind Spot Monitor Lights Abnormal

[ironcitijc]

I am sorry, but I am bit confused.
According to your previous post service center replaced yout rear bumper as a test and then blind spot monitor worked fine. Do you know what color was that one? Or was that one not painted at the time of the test and then after testing it they proceeded to paint it to match your car color?
You also say that you took your car back to them for front facing sensors/camera and they did recalibrate those. Have they also recalibrated blind spot and is it fixed now or it still goes of randomly? Also what color is your car if you don't mind asking?

As for the Bose audio issues mine has those from day one. I have observed 3 distinct issues with it:
1. The one that you describe - no audio from any source, with only fix locking the car and waiting around 20-30minutes. This one is very rare and I have experienced maybe only twice in my car and once also in loaner Macan.
2. Whole infotainment does not boot up and it is stuck on Porsche/Macan logo - technically not audio issue per say, but you still end up with no sound. This one is sort of rare and I have experienced maybe 10 times in my car and once also in loaner Macan. The fix is the same as the first one.
3. Music just randomly pauses - this one happens both for radio and internal Spotify app. Clicking play again resumes playback. This one happens on mine almost every other drive around 7 minutes into driving. On a loner Macan that I had for a month it never happened.

Service center said these are known SW bugs, which I find with that third one very weird as loaner Macan was not doing this, but it is also true that one did not have passenger display so maybe that one is tied to that?

@jwatte Mine issue with blind spot has nothing to do with even changing the lane it just randomly goes off even on the passenger side when there is no lane next to the car...

@Fadz Mine service center has not mentioned anything about blind spot false positives being tied to some knows SW issue once. And trust me they tried to blame as much faults as they can on SW on my car.

My Macan 4S is ice grey and I assume the new vehicle the dealer swapped bumpers with was also ice grey but I don't know for sure. The bottom line is all the things that have been tried - new bumper, testing sensors, multiple software updates, countless diagnostics and tests and now recalibrating the front facing camera (even though that was for a different set of errors) - have not solved the problem. Hope that helps

My 4 BSM lights on driver side mirror are not working as it should as on the passenger side. Those 3 square lights come on randomly, sometimes in pattern which is every 30 seconds even no cars in the blind spot and become annoying especially at night driving. I have it serviced twice at the dealer, but the problem came back. Now, is the 3rd visit hoping to resolve it this time. Anyone is experiencing same issue?

Just took my 2025 in for the second time for blind spot false positives. Last time I was told a software update fixed it, but I think it’s actually worse now. It’s becoming a real safety hazard. I’m second-guessing the system when cars are actually there, and it's even started actively resisting me when I try to change lanes on a clear road. Has anyone had any luck getting a permanent fix for this? I would think Porsche would have this problem on top of it's list of driver safety issues.

The last time I took my car at the dealer for 3rd try regards this issue they said, it's been reported to the HO in Germany and waiting for further recommendation/instruction how to fix it and it's been over a year now.
